The Society for Cardiovascular Magnetic Resonance (SCMR) is an international non-profit medical society based in East Dundee, in the United States.[citation needed] It was established as international representative and advocate for physicians, scientists, and technologists working in cardiovascular magnetic resonance (CMR) imaging. It works to improve patient outcomes through education, training, standards, research and development.[1] The society has published more than 40 professional guidelines and expert consensus statements to help standardize and guide education, research and patient management with CMR.[2][3][4] The society's members are physicians, scientists, technologists and trainees. In 2018, it is led by Matthias Stuber.
